Those are government agencies you voted for. American citizens want leaders who bomb countries. Go vote a non-interventionist or isolationist if you want someone else.

Face the truth. If you want no killing, Your enemy isn’t Google, it’s your neighbour.

I mean, I did vote for someone who doesn't want to do those things.

That person lost.

Sure, then it's not Google's fault either.

Starting from a false truth, you can come to any conclusion. Google is responsible for choosing to enable immoral acts and pretending there are no fault actors is one of your faults.

I said it before:

- If you continue this line of thinking, your only option probably is to extinguish all human being.

Absolutely. There can be no protesting ANY immoral actions, because that means you must advocate for ending humanity /s.

...

Enough said, enjoy your day.

I think the point is that it's not immoral because if it is immoral, then the only solution would be to end humanity.

And yet you fund the killing with your taxes. You know they kill, you know they need money to build the killing machines, you give them money.

Have an option for me to withhold those taxes that doesn't involve more killing? Sign me up.

Both you and Google are helping with the killing because it helps you make money. That’s okay. We all do terrible things for money.

You can withhold taxes by dropping your income below the minimum threshold.

yes, but you cannot deny paying these taxes because you live at the wims of the tyranny of the majority.

You could ofcourse proclaim not wanting to take part in said nation anymore and not pay the taxes, but then you would also loose out of well, the rest of society basically.

All you have to do is live unemployed and take money from the government, thus draining it of killing money.
